John & Scott
John and Scott are our dear friends from New York City. We came to know this rambunctious pair as we stood in line waiting to be married in San Francisco. Two days and about seventeen hours later, withstanding pouring rain and icy wind, we were all four wed and registered to our prospective partner, February 16, 2004, beneath the great rotunda of San Francisco City Hall, a beautiful Beaux Arts building, its dome newly gilded and soaring into the sky of The City. This elegant structure has stood since it replaced the original building lost in the Great Earthquake of 1917. John and Scott were our finest troopers - always keeping the conversation filled with laughter and constantly renewing our hope that we would indeed be married. We were within four couples of the door on the fifteenth when it was announced that the doors would close to any further applications that day. It was heart wrenching as you can imagine. We vowed to each other, and to several other couples we shared the line with, that we would be back the next day. I think it was that promise to others to face another day of storms together which got mark and I out of our lovely warm bed and downtown, before sunrise, that unbelievable Tuesday. All through the day we kept each others spirits up, taking restroom treks three blocks to a very considerate cafe, two at a time while the others saved our place. It did indeed prove successful - we proudly made it into the gallery of the rotunda and upon the steps we all were wed.
John and Scott have a pair of adorable Chihuahuas, Zza Zza and Gomez. John is a celebrity dentist and Scott has a notable psychology practice, both in Manhattan; not to mention a lovely doorman building in the Village! We see them both far to seldom, but when we do get together it's as if we've just seen them yesterday. Cocktails anyone? Oh, yeah!
